As per your wish. Everything is toggleable. You can mess with as per requirement. Ask other users for their settings for specific goals like for faster performance or battery backup etc.
Anyone pls suggest any link for best configuration...... I don't know anything about this
Hi guys, someone can help us with the configuration in kernel audiutor? It's the first time I flash a kernel so I don't know anything about this

Is this QC 2.0?
Great. Finally some kernel development started on z00l device. Thanks. Will soon try and post kernel settings that i'll find optimal for me.
Does it work on ViperOS?

Great Work ... Keep it up .. By the way do u have any telegram channel or any other community group?
Overall a good kernel. There is definitely performance improvement and most of the part is already optimized. Still if you like to try,
On searching a bit, what i found is-
Power suspend is the state where various hardware like RAM, GPU etc are cut off from power to save battery. It is very much like the hibernate in Windows OR suspend in Ubuntu.
Hybrid --> Generally suspend is slower than hibernation, hybrid combines both of them to achieve a mixed state.
Userspace --> The system intelligently suspends according to need of the device.
LCD panel --> Powersuspend is dependent on lcd hooks, which means that only lcd panel can wake the device once it achieves a suspended state.
Autosleep --> As the name implies, it autosleeps when needed.
Lastly, enable ksm and usb fast charge. That's all.
You may set minimum cpu freq to 200MHz. Rest, all cpu governor settings will go in vain since touch boost isn't disabled. A single touch boost up all cores to their max and none of them goes offline even on standby which i consider is significantly draining battery. A request to developer, if possible for you, please disable touch boost feature.
Thanks

F.A.Q. - Read this before complaining!
1. My phone exploded, HALP!
A: I don't answer to problems without a log. The log file is in /proc/last_kmsg. Paste it on pastie.org and link it on your post. Logcats are useless for Kernel purposes, don't bother posting them.
2. This kernel works on Y or X rom?
A: Doesn't work with ROMs having different ramdisk or any derivates due to their irresponsibility of using a different ramdisk which needs patches that break stock rom users. Use a different rom and don't bother me.
3. OMG BETTARY SUCKZ, IT DEAD IN 45 MINUTAS, HALP!
A: As you can imagine I don't build kernels to decrease battery life. All the battery life problems come from your apps, either Facebook, or Maps, or some Location Service being enabled etc etc. Check your damn wakelocks and fix them, the kernel is not responsible for them.
4. How do I flash this?
A: Reading the OP, theres a reason why I added instructions on it.
5. What is a data loss? Did I just had one?
A: Data loss is simply having the connection cut for X periods of time, usually few seconds. Grey bars means the device is not connected to Google services for some weird reason, but you'll still have internet connection.
6. OP is arrogant, I'm gonna call the Internet Police?
A: Deal with it.

Oh,I'll rebase it in the next build then.
Thanks for pointing it.
Guys is media [video recording and playing] broken?
As said by luca.Just wanted to confirm if I need to change the base.
Maybe can anyone check on latest CM12 build.

Normal moto g or second generation?
And there isnt even franco kernel for this device lol so ofc you screw up.
If you indeed own a moto g 2nd gen (titan) and your are running latest cm12 nightly it is safe to flash this kernel.

What
Sent from my Moto G 2014 using XDA Free mobile app
I did not think the new governors nor Min Freq: 96000
Is there anyway to disable the cpu being clocked at 19000 whenever I touch the screen? It's a feature of CM12, however is there anyway to disable this? I tried putting off mpDecision through Faux123 but it still goes to 19000 even with intelliplug and the user defined option. Any help appreciated!

Introduction
Buying Mi 5 gave me opportunity to spread wings and maintain a (hopefully) better version of Linux kernel for this device.
The idea is to provide two levels of modification, one - the most up-to-date kernel upstreamed with official Linux changes (also Android) repo to provide bug-free and stable experience, second - tweaks and additional features placed in top of upstreamed version to give blazing efficiency and battery friendly experience.
I came with the idea while looking onto linux repo - there are so many fixes and optimizations done to the code which gonna never come up to any Android device. So why not to try and pick some of these changes?
Android device is one of many for which Linux kernel is developed. Adding hardware specific changes will give extra performance and battery backup as it's going to use the phone architecture better instead of generic implementation.

Compatibility
It is LOS forked repo so any LOS-based ROM should be compatible (not MIUI compatible).
Do not use it with any custom ROM or additional modifications as I'm not supporting them (and will not).
Of course, you can try flashing, if it works - enjoy.
Downloads
You can use 'Download' tab in the top or download from AFH .
Installation:
- download kernel zip and necessarily check MD5!
- boot into recovery
- flash the zip (always flash on clean ROM!!)
- (optionally you can wipe cache/dalvik)
- reboot to the system and taste the madnesss
Soda-Upstream - stock kernel upstreamed with official repos as much as it is possible.
Features of Soda-Upstream:

- Updated arm64 deps
- Updated parts in net
- Miscellaneous scrpits update
- Stock frequency on 32gb model
- Own fix for mitigation task not initialized (testing)
- Other minor updates

Before you exit:
Don't get dishearten because of 'poor' features list. Main advantage of this kernel is upstream of many parts. Changes in Soda are chosen wisely, I implement thinks that are supposed to benefit. You don't need XYZ, you need Soda
Known issues:
Upstream:
None
Soda:
- Battery idle drain (investigation in progress)
- Speaker gain is broken
FAQ:
Could you add XYZ feature?
I will not add features I personally think are useless or unneeded. I can only promise I'll take it into consideration. If you're so single-minded about that just fork repo and pull request - I'll pick it gladly.
Could you upstream XYZ?
Ok, upstreaming is nice unless you fall into conflicts or totally new code structure. Don't expect me to update the kernel up to 4.13, haha! I'll keep in mind what you're asking me for, but if you're so desperate about this I'm waiting for pull request .
Why should I choose yours upstreamed version?
Don't expect it to change your Mi 5 into S7 edge =)
Think about like that - some time ago Google forked Linux kernel at version 3.18.31 and added their changes, then Qualcomm forked it and added their changes, then Xiaomi forked and added their changes. There are a lot of bugs, memory leaks and other bad stuff in here and probably nobody will take care about it... Oooch, except me! My aim is to keep the code as most up-to-date as possible - so without rewriting a half of proprietary drivers.
Does it make any sense?
In my opinion - yes.
Our phone will be more stable, not vulnerable to newest 0-days and hopefully a bit faster and battery friendlier. The key is bug-free optimized code; magical tweaks do not always take the first place in making a kernel better. As of my experience using upstreamed version gives more battery and smoothness!
"My phone freezees help meeee!!!!!!!11oneoneone..."
Description, logcat, kmesg or GTFO.
Could your changes damage my device?
I don't take any responsibility for broken devices, firing from work or nuclear wars. It's a hobby project maintained in my free time. I carefully pick up changes not to mess up anything and add features that are checked and provided to work correctly. There is a small range of cases when you can loose your phone completely, typically it will just freeze and reboot.
Where is version for MIUI and EAS?
MIUI won't be supported because Xiaomi haven't updated their repo for a long time. Building for MIUI would bring more problems than advantages.
EAS is in testing stage and will be released soon.
Remember to hit like button if you like my work as it motivates me a lot!
Play with it and post your experience please
Firmware:
Now I'm also providing updated firmware flashables.
You can easily download firmware packages from AFH .
Happy flashing!

How to tweak my kernel:
1. Charge control:
Path of all tunables is
Code:
/sys/kernel/fast_charge
You have 3 tunables as follows:
maximum_qc_current (DEFAULT: 2800) - it's very important one, its value controls QC3.0 charging current. Recently there are commons problems with screens and the assumption is that too high current causes that problem. Lowering the value would also make your battery's life longer!
force_fast_charge (DEFAULT: 0) - it's common known knob to force 900mA charging on unknown sources. I tweaked it a bit and now, if it's possible, driver will choose higher values depending on the source.
charge_limit (DEFAULT: 100) - it's very interesting one, its value controls maximum percentage of which your battery will be charged. After given limit charging will be stopped. Lowering this value could benefit in prolonged battery life as capacity wouldn't decrease that fast. Scientific researches recommend charging your battery to 80%.
3.Sound control:
You can tweak it using Kernel Adiutor.
4.Sched features:
I would like to resolve doubts connected with Arch Power. On kernel v3.18 there isn't such a feature. Cherry-picking old interface doesn't change anything in fair scheduler, the only thing you see is magic switch which does... nothing. Our kernel has feature named Arch Capacity which is *let's say* correspondent to previous one so I created two tunables - arch_capacity and arch_power. These are mirrored values so now you can enable/disable it in KA as known Arch Power but please remember that you're changing arch_capacity in fact.
My recommendation is to disable Gentle Fair Sleepers because you can save battery a bit.
You can also tweak it using Kernel Adiutor.
miui support please...
Aosp support ?
Did you add somes cpu governor ? And for you which its the best to have a better battery

Aleluya! Not much kernel variety on our mi 5, pretty thanks I will test it early dev
cheers
Download link (I've found it, but it would be better in the description)? Governors? SOT?
Great news Sir,
I hope soon we could have good costum kernel with great stability and compability with newer rom.
I wish you could support AOSP based rom too

I just started Soda developing so you have to wait sometime for custom tweaks.
According to governors I think the most important thing is to configure it nicely, sth like AKT or GovTuner does. Stock interactive is good.

AFAIK AOSP is based on LOS sources, it should work correctly
But some time it doesn't work properly on AOSP based rom, I used DragonXia as default kernel on every rom I flashed, but lately with latest release rom it's doesn't stable.
I hope you could made manually setting on/off the CPU core for better battery life, as hotplugging not save much battery life.
Overclocking was great too
I will test yours beta kernel right now Sir
CPU 0 and CPU 1 are stuck at 1593MHz.
Edit:
It seems like a restart solved it.

setting io scheduler to noop causes freeze.

will you add miui 9 support? miui lack of custom kernel support. thanks for dev gemini kernel.
which features does it have? quick charge? eas ?
"disabled CPU Boost" this is real great, i guess you know what i want. waitinng for a more stable realese and then give it a try
I pushed a first beta of Soda kernel. I added a few useful features, but battery usage reduction should be significant. Try it on your own
Thanks for your work! I will try and report back when possible.
Poor scores

don't dirty Flash my kernel on any other custom kernel , if you are coming from another custom kernel , first flash your Rom's stock kernel through Fastboot , then Flash my kernel.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
these are my kernel settings , you can use them in case you can't use spectrum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
never post problems without full details of what setup you are using, it's not possible to help that way.
Provide me some logs:
- ADB logcat dump
- /sys/fs/pstore contents
- dmesg dump
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Only use EAS builds alongside EAS supported roms..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if you think your battery life is not good enough , use betterbatterystats and find the battery drain causes..

v1.0 :
initial release
a bout EAS :
EAS stands for Energy Aware Scheduling , where the whole governor settings + HMP Settings are replaced by one system relying on "scheduler hints" from specifically modded low-level files including specially modded libs and framework patches.EAS aims to achieve better battery through lowering the product of V * I by altering the voltage along with the frequency dynamically based on loads calculation and the frequency used and many other variables.
EAS will set the core > Frequency > voltage per task. If the scheduler decided that a task needs a higher freq then it supplies that before the task is placed on a core.
Also the great thing about EAS (When tuned and setup properly) is that it is setup to not overshoot and overpower task workload.
Unlike our standard governor like interactive that does sampling and cpu-boost. These both can overshoot the performance needs pf the current workload thus leading to energy loss.
in short : EAS is all about setting the stune groups and the cpusets and using a sched -or schedutil- governor. There has to be an energy model for the SoC so that there is proper energy costs calculation made
*Energy models are the voltage/frequency*
Nice to see this kernel for mi5.
It Should work with Aosp (extended)? It uses schedutil governor by default.
And.does.it have oc.for 32gb version?

How many users are there in this kernel and what is it with custom ROM?
* Go to User Statistics.
With this kernel, the following information is sent once to the developer's server at boot time.
variant, android serial number(not device serial), name of current firmware(ROM), country code, kernel version
* This information is Android apps can see without any special permissions.
* If you suspect other information transfer, open the '/res/synapse/actions/addon' file.
Description for AOSP ROMs
If you are using another developer's custom kernel, or if using ramdisk is corrupted kernel, you may encounter a bootloop or an unknown problem.
If you have a bootloop problem, flash the PRIME kernel after first flashing the builtin kernel in your ROM. (Or flash the ROM again)
This kernel is flashed AnyKernel method, for all kinds of AOSP ROM support.

Flashed v1.4 with stock GPU drivers. running fine so far but boot time is still longer than with other kernels.
Could you add a global slider to under volt CPU and GPU by a certain value?
EDIT:
In Synapse at "Game Tuner MOD" and "Utility" tab the last few settings are not in englisch

Will try this kernel now and report back.

The global slider is hard to implement, because of the UI structure of Synapse.
If you are not comfortable with the Voltage setting, you can get the desired result by returning to Synapse after setting in MTweaks. If you do not know what I mean, try it.
What if it takes a long time to boot? If it is a symptom that only takes longer in the first Bootanimation, it will not be a problem from the second since it recreates the dalvik (ART) cache for some reason.
If it takes a long time to boot each time, it may be because used the G935F ramdisk in this kernel. I tried BatmanROM, but I did not have the problem you said.
In the next version, i will separate ramdisks by variant like v1.3.0.
Korean in the Gametuner-MOD and utility tabs are donation-only functions.
I will translate English donors if they say inconveniences.

Ok, tried that with MTweaks and noticed that it was already under volted by my previous settings.
Noticed that there is no tab to disable wakelocks. Do you plan to add this?
EDIT: for now I back to my previous kernel...sorry....
Thanks!

Kernel-level wakelocks work when requested by an Android system or app.
It is not desirable to force such requests to be ignored.
My Note4 kernel has a wakelock tab. However, it was added because of the deep-sleep problem in some variants of Note4.
If there is a deep sleep (wakelock) problem in our S7, I will add a wake-lock tab.
Again briefly, the wakelock control should not be abused. So, if there are no related problems, I will not add them.
update to v1.5.0
Thanks for supporting AOSP! ?
After flashing 1.5.0 I'm still at 1.4.0 :/

If flashing was completed and there were no errors, it is not possible.
If you rooted or unrooted the kernel after flashing, the old kernel would have been restored.
If you do not know, Flash the kernel after rooting.

Indeed, I rooted after flashing the kernel, thank you ^-^
you do a fantastic job with all the feature you added in your kernel(thunderplug,eas, pwm flicker free, etc...). v15 is very recommended
Hey man, thanks for this kernel! I tried it on AOSP for RR which boots but I noticed that flashing this kernel, disabled the option to adjust vibrate intensity. The option in Sound is there but Settings Force Closes when clicking on it. The reason I need to adjust it, is the vibration is back to really strong vibration when touching a key. Hope this details helps. On latest Prime 1.5.0

issue was raised on edge thread.

! This kernel is based on treble tree,so make sure you are on a treble ROM !
【! From R20 , it only support 4.4 compatible ROM since we are having 4.4 kernel !】
! Some profiles from /vendor will be replaced so if you want to fully uninstall this kernel,just dirty flash your current ROM!
If you are coming from other kernels,better to do a dirty flash on your current ROM to avoid any strange problems.

You can get latest test build here
---------Notice-----------
I can say with certain flashing this kernel is safe at all.Kernel will not go on OC freqs if u dont choose OC freqs by using tools like KA.So in fact u can use this kernel as a non-OC kernel Lol.
But the kernel has a lot of settings that could cause unstable like high OC freqs (2.53/2.46/780/2.0),so its strongly recommend to test the freq you want to use before you set it for daily use.Just lock min and max freq to it and see if theres kernel panic or crashes.If everything is fine,you can choose it for daily use.Or u can try to raise voltage for it and test again.
For every device:
OC 2.26+1.68+624 is stable
For most device:
OC 2.34+1.76+710 is stable
For some device:
OC 2.41+2.0(1.86)+780 is stable
For little device:
OC 2.50+2.0+780 is stable
So if this kernel is good at performance or battery depends on ur settings.Default settings(1.8+1.3+624) prefer battery + smooth.
!!!!!Above all,DONT PLAY PUBG ON OC FREQS IF U DONT HAVE WATER COOLER!!!!!
!!!!!UNDERCLOCK FOR PUBG OR U CAN HARDLY EAT CHICKEN LOL!!!!!

Nice work.. lack of custom kernel for our device is now gone thanks to you.. I'll try when i flash treble rom but thank you anyway..
Am I dreaming? *0*

So I lock it down to 2.15 as default.You can choose 2.2/2.3 as you like.
Is voltage control available? And I think there're too little steps above the stock frequencies, and did you modified GhostPepper to include all the OC frequencies?
